Biography

Lydia Fiore, an award-winning actor/writer and founder of Bella Fiore Productions, owes her filmmaking career to a ridiculous Tinder Date that ended "prematurely". Who knew that a random hook-up would expand her storytelling from an actor to a screenwriter and filmmaker. This inspired Lydia to write and create content for herself. She wrote and starred-in her first comedic shorts - HIGH DENY, a film about pills, prosecco and politics and SWIPED RIGHT, a middle-aged romantic comedy and recently completed her first feature length screenplay LOVE BIG - a Gen-Xer RomCom with a touch of raunch.

Lydia continues to create stories about women, particularly women over 40 that center around love, sex, aging and partying. Did we mention sex? LOVE BIG, a deliciously funny and touching RomCom has received several screenwriting honors including: Finalist in the Creative World Awards and Catalina Film Festival and was 1 of 3 scripts chosen for New York Women in Film and TV's New Works Lab Showcase.

Lydia's love for acting started in "LA of the East" Lackawanna, NY - a steel town outside of Buffalo best known for snow, steel, and softball. These blue-collar roots cultivated her dynamic "work hard, play harder, laugh hardest" personality. She moved to NYC to complete her BS degree at Fashion Institute of Technology and now resides in the suburbs of Jersey.

She has appeared in dozens of Award-winning indie films, numerous TV shows/pilots and stars in the wildly popular web series LORRAINE RUSSO'S FAMILY DIARIES.

When she's not acting, Lydia is smothering her Havanese dog, Desi, with kisses and killing it on the pickleball courts.
